“Ugly Betty” Star Ana Ortiz Is Among Several C-List Latinos Who Urge You To Vote

Super famous actress Ana Ortiz is using her star power along with other Latino entertainers (George Lopez!) to try and get Latinos to vote. Gosh, we haven’t been so motivated to become part of a virtually senseless and futile election system since P. Diddy’s “Vote Or Face Execution By Firing Squad And Then Like Maybe Get Eaten By Fire Ants” campaign:

How will your celebrity status get people to vote?

People choose to listen to celebrities in our culture, so I feel like we should be standing from the rooftop. I don’t accept those people who say ‘you’re an actor, you can’t say anything.’ If you’re a librarian you can say something. If you’re a car wash guy you can say something. I don’t see why just because we’re actors we should shut up and be silent. We have an opportunity because people listen to us for whatever reason, so go ahead and use that.

True that, What’s-Your-Face.
